Try to resist the pull at your
heart strings when you read the fol-
lowing received in the oflice of The
Evening Sentinel this morning;
Dear Sentinel:
Will you please send me a ticket
for Roton Point? I cannot come
because my mother is sick.
Will you please send me a ticket.
1 thank you for it.
My name is Lily Dominick.
8 Laura street.
Please send me one.
She'll Get a Ticket.
Will a. ticket be sent to Lily for
The Evening Sentinel's Free Annual
Roton Point Kiddie Party next
Monday morning?
You can bet your house and lot
on it. . __ ‘
There was a scramble at The
Evening Sentinel ofiice. among
members of the staff. as to who
would be given the privilege of tak—
ing a. precious ticket to little Lily.
Here is another heart tllrob—and
true.
A youngster. whose head reached
the level of the counter at The Eve- .
ping Sentinel office yllterday ap-
pealed for a. ticket. for himself
which was given and another for
his sister.
"Why can't your sister come and
get it herself?" was the question
asked.“
“She ain't got shoes," he answer-
ed simply. “But my father promised
to buy her a pair before Monday so
she can. go on the picnic."
Preparations are shaping them-
selves wonderfully for the big free
annual Evening Sentinel and Boton
Point picnic. ‘
~ Fine Co-operatlon.
Neville Bayley of Roton Point is
cooperating. as he has done in the
past. one hundred per cent.
“Everything in my park belongs to
the kids on the day of the party,"
e s.
h Iriddition to the rides and the
fun, he will furnish every youngster
with milk and candy.
‘ Then George Diefenbach. he who
presides over great mountains of
ice-cream at the park. promises the
biggest. most luscious helping of ice-
cream ever for each of the 2,000
children who will be guests of the
Evening Sentinel and Roton Point
on. the happiest day of the sum-
war.
‘The brow of Thomas MacLean,
local superintendent of the Con-
necticut Co. was clouded this morn-
ing. Perhaps he could not get suf-
ficient cars together next Monday
morning to accommodate all the
youngsters who will clamor to go on
the picnic. But then those who know
“Tom" also know that when a good
deed for children is to be done he
will do the impossible to bring smiles
and happiness to them.

was discussed, for even happy chil-
dren, must eat, C. B. Lewis of the

HARTFORD. July 9 (AP).—The
hearing on the constitutionality of
the state film tax law will be held
tomorrow morning at 10 o'clock in
the L'nited States District Court
room at New Haven, Judge Henry
Wade Rogers of the Second Circuit
of the United States Circuit Court
of Appeals stated in New ork today.
The case will be argued before Judge
Rogers and Judges Thomas Thatch-
er and Henry Goddard of the Uni-
ted States District court of New
York.
Arthur L. Shipman, counsel for
the state. yesterday asked for a post.
ponement of the hearing to allow
more time for the preparation of
briefs, and secured the acquiescence
of George W. Wickersham of New
York. who with Benedict M. Holden
is counsel for the complainants. but
Mr. Shipman said today the court
decided that the hearing sh0uld be
held Friday as it had previously
been scheduled.
The complainants in the case are
the Fox Film Corporation of New
York and the American Feature
Film Corporation of Boston. They
have petitioned the court .to author-
ize injunction proceedings against
the state and to declare the new law
unconstitutional as a violation of the
interstate commerce clauses.
Since counsel for both sides have
declared that the appeal will be
made in the event of an adverse de-
cision. it is likely that tomorrow's
hearing will be merely preliminary
to a more significant review by the
Supreme court.

tercst today as Dayton made final
preparations for what has been
termed a battle between fundamen-

Dr. John R. Neal, chief counsel,
declared that Mr. Bryan had fore-
cast he would move from the lower
court to the state Supreme Court.
then to the Supreme Court of the
United States ‘and having lost his
fight on account of,the existing
constitutional guarantees of re-
ligious and educational liberties, "he

these constitutional immunities bya
new constitutional amendment.

expression of his faith in the mo-
dern Jury system and a. discussion
of what he termed an attempt by
a minority of scientists to force
their views on scientific lines upon'
the children of the majority formed
the principal themes in Mr. Bryan’s
address. ’

Attorney Hugh Lavery represented
the woman and filed a demurer
which was overruled.
When the case of Burns came up
he asked that consideration be
shown him on the grounds that he
had a world war record, being ,a
wounded veteran. These facts were
taken into consideration by Judge
Candee. He was charged with intox-
ication and breach of the peace.
